I Woz Robbed!

Hi Woofers!

It's us again, Daisy, Holly, Miss Snowflake and Mr Brambles!

Another day of fun and frolics!

The Macro lens was still on the camera, so it was long shots and insects again!

There was a couple of shots that Old Two Legs took that weren't too bad.

First Mr Brambles was tearing up the beach to have a roll in the dry sea weed.

Hears Brambles!

We met up with some of the lads and had what OTL calls a Woofers Convention! There was Max and Oscar, then young Bryn and Little Holly, not our Holly, just a visitor on holiday, and then there was Holly and me!

A Gang Sniff!

Of course, OTL was hunting insects and came across these flies who sat still long enough to be photographed. Pity the wind didn't drop and stop blowing the flowers about!

Flesh Fly

This Bluebottle was showing off it's shiny back!

It's Bluebottle!

Then there was this one that OTL thinks is a House Fly, so what it was doing on the flowers on the grass path is any ones guess!

House Fly?

Lunchtime was great 'cos that means the tide was in and I was swimming!

I was swimming after the stick but I got distracted by a big woofer who was swimming out to chase my stick!

I did a crafty one on him 'cos I turned around and headed back to OTL and left the stick in the water!

Then the cheeky Bozo asked me where I kept my stick 'cos he couldn't see it in my mouth!

'Ere! Where do you keep yer stick?

That was him sorted but I lost the stick 'cos it floated away on the tide!

OTL says he will keep his eyes open for another one!

We were hunting rabbits and OTL spotted a very small bee like thing that could have been a fly in disguise. He was chomping away on the nectar and going Yum, Yum, Yum!

Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum

Not too sure what is for dinner tonight but I know that Holly and I have Doggy Scoff!

So, off we go and see what we can mug off OTL, nibbles, cookies, carrots or even a Chicken Fillet!

Seems that I will be the lone "commenter" as Archie's mum has a new Windows thingy and it won't let her comment. Wow look at all those doggies and flying creatures, OTL did well to capture them, so glad he remembered his camera, memory, battery and lenses, he is doing good for a not so young! Crafty with that stick Daisy but a pity that you lost it, maybe it will come in on the tide tomorrow otherwise you will need a new one. Our Daisy found a stick today that looked like a deer antlers, she had great fun with it posing on her head, she put it back where she found it and a bigger boy came along, picked it up, broke it in two and made off with half of it. She looked so sad. xx Are you wondering if OTL will have nibbles, cookies, carrots and chicken fillet for his dinner or will you just do your sad hungry look when he has finished his dinner? I wish you great luck and hope it is chicken fillet from the doggie shop, one each. Our Daisy goes home tomorrow so we are a bit sad, it is going to be quieter without her giggling about her videos she makes on her tablet. xxxx

About Me

Hello, my name is Daisy and I was taken away from
Mum and Dad by Old Two Legs and The Missus one cold dark evening. It was a bit
traumatic at the time but we all soon settled down and everything is OK now.

My sister Holly came to live with us about a year later and between the pair of us we manage to keep these Two Legs in line!

In December 2012, we were joined by Snowflake, a little ferret we found in our garden. She had her own home in OTL's office called Snowy Heights!

Then in July 2013 Mr Brambles, a super Sandy Hob Ferret, came to live with us and be a mate for Snowflake. We sadly lost Mr Brambles to old age in September 2015. A gentle ferret who will be missed terribly. We also lost Miss Snowflake in November 2015. She has left a big hole in our hearts, she was a real Daddy's Girl to the end.

There arrived two new ferrets in August 2015, Miss May and Miss April who are sisters, born in 2013, we think! They were full of fun and mischief and kept up the tradition of pinching our biscuits, just like Brambles did!

Sadly Miss April contracted Cardiomyopathy, which is a heart condition. She died in September 2016 and is resting in a flower pot in the garden with Snowflake and Brambles.

We were down to two ferrets and an empty cage but that didn't last long, a brother and sister ferrets needed a 'Forever Home' and Fred & Wilma moved in. They are about two and a half years old, so they were born 2012/2013. Fred is a gentle soul who loves cuddles with OTL and Wilma a bossy sister but loves OTL! We reckon them to be Polecat Coloured Ferrets.

It was a shock when Wilma was attacked by a dog and unfortunately died of shock a few hours later. Like Snowflake, Brambles and April, she is also sleeping in a flower pot in our garden.

Fred was not happy about being on his own and he was introduced to Wendy, a Polecat Coloured Ferret who found her way to the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue.

Introductions went well to begin with but within a day or so she began instructing Fred on just who was really in charge!

We had something similar with Miss May who lost her sister to Cardiomyopathy (Weak Heart). Miss May is a feisty young lady and she was introduced to Eric de Ferret while we were down at the Harrietsham Ferret Rescue and although she tried to be a bit bossy, he was having none of it! He may only be six months old but her didn't back down and the pair came to an agreement!

So young Eric moved in and they both started to learn how to get on together!

OTL takes us walking every day and we have 'Adventures'! The Missus feeds us, so, what more can a pair of puppies and family of fun loving ferrets ask for?
